That is awesome - you'll soon qualify as a public aquarium won't you & be able to charge admission to visit ???

I thought the 8 footer was nasty, but this baby takes the cake. Puts any other tank to shame, and that includes the 8 footer as well.
I wonder how long it's gonna take to get this bad boy fully cycled? 2 months? 3 months? I can only imagine....
Keep us up to date Merrilyn. Cant wait

Thanks for all the comments folks. Yes, I know it's insane, but I saw it, and I just had to have it. There were only 2 of them in Australia, one in Melbourne and another one in Sydney. They retail for a bit over $10,000, but this one came direct from the importer. Filtration will be two Fluval FX5 filters, two Aqua One filters and one one Eheim Pro 3. UV will be provided by two Debary UV units.
The tank is 10 foot by 2 foot by 2 foot 6 inches deep all 15mm glass, and holds around 1720 litres.
I intend turning it into a true Amazon biotope. An exact replica of a small chunk of the Amazon river (well a rather large chunk actually). No plants, just branches and driftwood, home to a few hundred cardinal tetras, some altums, discus, eartheaters for the bottom and maybe a pleco or two.
I'll let you know as things progress.
